Just accept

Whether good or bad, everything is sent for a reason. And though life sometimes seems cruel and merciless, it knows what it's doing. Later, when you look back, you'll realize that absolutely everything was done for your benefit. Even that which shattered your heart into pieces. It will come together again later; you are your first healer, and kind people will certainly help. Don't ask life, why? The answer is obvious: to become even stronger, because a person is like a brick, becoming stronger when burned. And although this may seem impossible to you now, one day happiness will come back into your soul. In the meantime, humbly accept that troubles happen, regardless of who you are. Life really has no bad or good, everyone dances in its rhythm...

The Scariest People

The scariest people are those who are independent, who have found a whole world within themselves and are captivated by this world. They no longer have a need for any society. They let go easily. You might be very important to such people, but they won't tolerate unhappiness. They will simply leave. Because people with a universe inside lose nothing. Don't expect them to suffer without you. Self-sufficiency is a gift of fate and a curse at the same time.

How to Better Understand a Person

Notice the details. Every day we perform thousands of routine actions: we talk on the phone, buy food. People’s actions can provide insights into their personality and help predict how they will behave in similar situations. Example A. Someone who chooses the same dish at a restaurant every day may avoid changes in life and dislike uncertainty. Such a person may be a loyal and devoted husband, but it would be difficult to persuade him to move to another country or make a risky investment. Example B. A person who enjoys playing the stock market and other risky enterprises is likely to take risks in other areas of life as well. For instance, they might quit a job without having found a new one or without having secured a financial ‘safety net’.

Trust as the Foundation of Relationships

Relationships should be built on trust. It is the base, the foundation. Yes, love is necessary, passion is important. But without trust, relationships become a farce, a psychological ailment, a state of nervousness. But when you trust, you experience calmness, you have confidence, you are relaxed. And even the escalation of an unpleasant situation, even the height of passion, will not make you doubt. But if trust is lost, returning to the starting point is impossible.

BMW Chief Calls for Scrapping EU's Ban on Petrol Cars

The BMW chief urged the cancellation of the European Union's future ban on the sale of petrol cars, despite increasing deliveries of electric BMWs and Minis. The zero-emission law, set to come into effect in 2035, is "virtually unrealistic" under current conditions and "threatens the heart of the European car industry," Oliver Zipse said at the Paris Motor Show. Earlier, the Italian Prime Minister called the EU ban "self-destructive," and the head of the French automotive association suggested revising the law's norms.

Milton Erickson's 'Positive Thinking' Method

Milton Erickson was one of the best psychotherapists of the 20th century. He was a great humanist and advocated for therapy to be gentle and painless. At the age of 17, Milton contracted polio. Hearing from a doctor that he was about to die, he vowed to himself that he would live - and he kept his word. While paralyzed, Erickson regained his speech, moved his arms and legs, and even covered 1000 miles in just a few days, which seemed impossible with his diagnosis. The future psychotherapist largely managed to overcome the disease thanks to the principle of positive thinking. Later, Milton identified five key points within this principle.
